Each created window has a unique associated OpenGL context. State changes to
a window's associated OpenGL context can be done immediately after the
window is created.

The display state of a window is initially for the window to be shown. But
the window's display state is not actually acted upon until
mainLoop is entered. This means until
mainLoop is called, rendering to a created window is
ineffective because the window can not yet be displayed.

Create a top-level window. The given name will be provided to the window
system as the window's name. The intent is that the window system will label
the window with the name.Implicitly, the current window is set to the newly
created window.

X Implementation Notes: The proper X Inter-Client Communication Conventions
Manual (ICCCM) top-level properties are established. The WM_COMMAND
property that lists the command line used to invoke the GLUT program is only
established for the first window created.

Destroy the specified window and the window's associated OpenGL context,
logical colormap (if the window is color index), and overlay and related
state (if an overlay has been established). Any subwindows of the destroyed
window are also destroyed by destroyWindow. If the specified window was the
current window, the current window becomes invalid (currentWindow will
contain Nothing).

Controls the current window. It does not affect the layer in use for
the window; this is done using layerInUse.
Contains Nothing if no windows exist or the previously current window was
destroyed. Setting the current window to Nothing is a no-op.

Mark the normal plane of given window (or the current window, if none
is supplied) as needing to be redisplayed. The next iteration through
mainLoop, the window's display callback will be
called to redisplay the window's normal plane. Multiple calls to
postRedisplay before the next display callback opportunity generates only a
single redisplay callback. postRedisplay may be called within a window's
display or overlay display callback to re-mark that window for redisplay.

Logically, normal plane damage notification for a window is treated as a
postRedisplay on the damaged window. Unlike damage reported by the window
system, postRedisplay will not set to true the normal plane's damaged
status (see damaged).

Perform a buffer swap on the layer in use for the current window.
Specifically, swapBuffers promotes the contents of the back buffer of the
layer in use of the current window to become the contents of the front
buffer. The contents of the back buffer then become undefined. The update
typically takes place during the vertical retrace of the monitor, rather than
immediately after swapBuffers is called.

An implicit flush is done by
swapBuffers before it returns. Subsequent OpenGL commands can be issued
immediately after calling swapBuffers, but are not executed until the
buffer exchange is completed.

If the layer in use is not double buffered, swapBuffers has no effect.

Note that the requests by windowPosition, windowSize, and fullScreen
are not processed immediately. A request is executed after returning to the
main event loop. This allows multiple requests to the same window to be
coalesced.

Controls the position of the current window. For top-level windows,
parameters of Position are pixel offsets from the screen origin. For
subwindows, the parameters are pixel offsets from the window's parent window
origin.

In the case of top-level windows, setting windowPosition is considered only
a request for positioning the window. The window system is free to apply its
own policies to top-level window placement. The intent is that top-level
windows should be repositioned according to the value of windowPosition.

Controls the size of the current window. The parameters of Size are
size extents in pixels. The width and height must be positive values.

In the case of top-level windows, setting windowSize is considered only a
request for sizing the window. The window system is free to apply its own
policies to top-level window sizing. The intent is that top-level windows
should be reshaped according to the value of windowSize. Whether a reshape
actually takes effect and, if so, the reshaped dimensions are reported to the
program by a reshape callback.

Request that the current window be made full screen. The exact semantics
of what full screen means may vary by window system. The intent is to make
the window as large as possible and disable any window decorations or borders
added the window system. The window width and height are not guaranteed to be
the same as the screen width and height, but that is the intent of making a
window full screen.

X Implementation Notes: In the X implementation of GLUT, full screen is
implemented by sizing and positioning the window to cover the entire screen
and posting the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property on the window requesting
absolutely no decorations. Non-Motif window managers may not respond to
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS.

pushWindow and popWindow work on both top-level windows and subwindows.
The effect of pushing and popping windows does not take place immediately.
Instead the push or pop is saved for execution upon return to the GLUT event
loop. Subsequent pop or push requests on a window replace the previously
saved request for that window. The effect of pushing and popping top-level
windows is subject to the window system's policy for restacking windows.

Note that the effect of showing, hiding, and iconifying windows does not take
place immediately. Instead the requests are saved for execution upon return
to the GLUT event loop. Subsequent show, hide, or iconification requests on a
window replace the previously saved request for that window. The effect of
hiding, showing, or iconifying top-level windows is subject to the window
system's policy for displaying windows. Subwindows can't be iconified.

windowTitle and iconTitle should be set only when the current
window is a top-level window. Upon creation of a top-level window, the
window and icon names are determined by the name given to createWindow.
Once created, setting windowTitle and iconTitle can change the window and
icon names respectively of top-level windows. Each call requests the window
system change the title appropriately. Requests are not buffered or
coalesced. The policy by which the window and icon name are displayed is
window system dependent.

Change the cursor image of the current window. Each call requests the
window system change the cursor appropriately. The cursor image when a window
is created is Inherit. The exact cursor images used are implementation
dependent. The intent is for the image to convey the meaning of the cursor
name. For a top-level window, Inherit uses the default window system
cursor.

Setting pointerPosition warps the window system's pointer to a new
location relative to the origin of the current window by the specified
pixel offset, which may be negative. The warp is done immediately.

If the pointer would be warped outside the screen's frame buffer region, the
location will be clamped to the nearest screen edge. The window system is
allowed to further constrain the pointer's location in window system
dependent ways.

Good advice from Xlib's XWarpPointer man page: "There is seldom any
reason for calling this function. The pointer should normally be left to the
user."
